Volcanoes

SEA VOLCANOES
There are lots of volcanoes under the sea.When one gets tall enough to appear above the waves, it makes an island.

VOLCANIC ERUPTION
When a volcano erupts, lava comes out of a vent (opening) in the volcanoes top side.BOMBS of rock may shoot up into the sky, and thick clouds of ash and gas may billow out.Sometimes a vent is
in a hollow called a crater.

HOW  HOT CAN LAVA ........BE?
Lava is so hot it can light your house on fire even if it was brick.
DID YOU KNOW THAT?
Lava moves so slow that you can go before it arrives if
someone told you.







DO YOU LIKE VOLCANOES AREN'T INTERESTING EVEN IF THEY KILL OR NOT?

storms and floodes

monsoon floods

A monsoon is a wind that blows one way all winter.
in Asia, the monsoon in in summer brings
very heavy rain from the oceans 



And in pakistan the monsoon happend in pakistan and lots of people died there and in Ramadan people gave a lot of money for them.
I got scared when I herd the news.

I would try to donate money for them
                                        stormes at sea
at sea,big floodes come from them for exampel a huge river and it is next to land it rains for days and the next day you wake up and it is wet and you need to go awway but you can not go away so you have to live on top of the house for a year .
